@MumClimate After 4 decades of protesting, never ending lobbying, supporting FoE/Greenpeace (and being an active member in 80s/90s), this latest COP has done me in. I’ve had enough. Waste of time.
Feel like king Canute.
I’m signing off.
Gonna spend what time I have left enjoying my hobbies
@dave43law NO. What were the words he uttered when he became PM? Transparency; Honesty. Can’t remember the other words.
Has he lived up to them?
NO.
How can you be honest and transparent when you are refusing to hand over WhatsApp messages to an inquiry.
Sunak is a lying deceitful spiv
@snowleopardess Tories are pushing NHS towards privatisation. It appears to me to be a trend for everything.
If it makes money treasury will back it.
If it is a drain on the treasury (trains; NHS; benefits) offer it out for privatisation or ditch it for charities to pick up and support.
@Rhydgaled_PTE@friends_earth I don’t believe we have ‘done our bit’. In fact I think quite the opposite. This UK Gov is intent on extracting as much oil out of the North Sea as possible.
They are pumping money into oil and gas projects around the world. Mozambique is one.
Net zero = complete myth.
@secure_energy_ Most of the company’s who are offering projects to tackle climate change are in it for the potential money. They are not in it to save the environment or the planet. They come 2nd and 3rd after making money.
@XRebellionUK Money talks.
Law or whatever. If the money is right there is a way round it. Providing of course there are corrupt people in position of power to allow it.
Which there always seems to be.
@climatemessages@dorfman_p With regards to 350,000 new humans every day we are making INCREASINGLY infinite demands on a planet that is fast running out of finite resources
@doctor_oxford @huxleyisland @BorisJohnson The Tory Gov from Johnson to now a total joke. So many lies told I’ve lost count. I remember the 1st: £350 million a week for NHS when we leave the EU.
Where is it?
So many denials that proved to be true.
Totally totally untrustworthy bunch of ppl who should not be in parliament
@SophieP25397 @huxleyisland I don’t know the ins and outs of this but presumably migrants are asked which airport or seaport they came through to get into the UK. If they have no proof they came through neither they are an illegals immigrant and should be immediately deported.
@Bennyjj81 @huxleyisland @Haggis_UK I’m in my 60s and in my opinion Sunak is the worst prime minister I have ever known. He clearly doesn’t give a damn about anything except that which makes money. The environment isn’t even on his radar, though he says it is. But his action so far reveal the total lie.
@dorfman_p No. No surprise. All businesses do it.
Look at tourist ind. as pandemic was spreading.
Public were told everything was rosey.
People were still booking holidays abroad.
In reality ppl were cancelling big style. It’s become the norm to lie to protect your business interests
@MikeHudema We must. But those in power won’t.
Only they know the true reasons why they won’t act. For me, I think they’ve been told ages ago that it is too late but they won’t say that because of the world wide anarchy and unrest that would follow. So they keep quiet and carry on.
@BBCNews Another example of corrupt developers. Area is prone to coastal erosion. The land will be very cheap. Developers will make a fortune building and shoring up the cliffs. Whether it works or not is not their problem. By the time that happens. They will be long gone with the money.
@WilliamJRipple@dorfman_p The people in power are not stupid people. You don’t get to be a top politician unless you are sharp. So they must know that climate change will wreck all economies like nothing ever before. I can only think that they know they won’t be in the hot seat when it all collapses
